Hey Jack21,

I didn't mean to imply I haven't driven a kit car - I've driven my 521-powered E-M over 3400 miles since mid-June, including a nice long session on the track last Saturday at Summit Point. It woulda been more mileage except for the distributor gear problem

I'm so happy with the car I could spit! For me, it's nearly perfect.

I recall seeing over 200 others at the Fling this year, and the thing that struck me most was that every one of them was different - as it should be I think.

The feel, sound and performance is better than I imagined.

No complaints here

Regards,

Tom

PS: The practical advice I used to build this car is -> "If it matters what gear you're in, the engine's too small!"
